This BRAND NEW 314-page hardback in-depth exposition of Daniel's prophecy with much enlightening historical and archaeological material not found elsewhere was written by a well-known biblical scholar. This is a FIRST EDITION by Kregel of the 1923 edition published by Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, London; Macmillan, New York. A RARE one-of-a-kind find!
Here is a review found online; "Boutflower was an exceptional scholar and epigrapher who was fluent in Babylonian cuneiform. His "unpacking" of the subtle depths of Daniel and the personalities of the New Kingdom rulers, supported by his own thorough background in extra-scriptural inscriptions and archaeological evidence constitutes a tour-de-force in exegetical scholarship. A treat to read, this work is indisputably the most thorough examination of the book of Daniel available. Highly recommended!"
